About Aeneas
Aeneas was a man in Lydda who had been bedridden for eight years due to paralysis. When the apostle Peter visited Lydda, he found Aeneas and said to him, "Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you. Get up and roll up your mat." Immediately, Aeneas was healed and got up. This miracle led to many people in Lydda and Sharon turning to the Lord. (Act.9.33,34).
